TJinMT	Posted - Sep 03 2010 : 3:53:04 PM Hey all - this may have been posted before, but just in case... The Environmental Working Group (foodnews.org) has this great free shopper's guide to pesticides on their website. I hope I'm not violating anything by posting it here, but, they have a list of the "Dirty Dozen" - the veggies & fruits you most want to buy organic, as they are the worst pesticide holders - and the Clean 15, the fruits & veggies lowest in pesticides. Here they are: Dirty Dozen (Buy These Organic) celery peaches strawberries apples blueberries nectarines bell peppers spinach kale cherries potatoes imported grapes Clean 15 (lowest in pesticides) onions avocado sweet corn pineapple mangos sweet peas asparagus kiwi cabbage eggplant cantaloupe watermelon grapefruit sweet potato honeydew melon This is great information to have - not only for buying for our homes, but for gardeners to grow!! Thought I'd pass it on!! ~TJ of Green Willow Place "You can never get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me." -CS Lewis

quiltin mama	Posted - Sep 04 2010 : 1:50:49 PM Thanks for sharing that! One thing that you should always buy organic also (even though it's on the "clean" list) is corn. If it's not organic, you can bet your bottom dollar that it's GMO. my blog www.mountainhomequilts.blogspot.com handmade quilts on etsy www.mountainhomequilts.etsy.com
